Monroe achieved his pres ent starry position in the dramatic skies by performing in play of Mir. George Knights part similar to that which he now performs He is just good in this as he was in that. That great many people in the word like to see this kind of acting is not to be denied It is necessary to mention that the play was given admirably we'll and the audience ap- peared to be we'll pleased with it. In the museum hall the lilliputians, Captain George Liable and the German Rose, will appear.
